Marie’s Blog – There’s No U in Family

I know I’m not supposed to blog about other people, but Internet, I’m worried.

I was just talking to a friend of mine, and being friendly, I asked about her husband. (Was it the same husband I might have mentioned in an earlier blog post? Maybe.)

She says he’s out. Out where? Just out.

Internet, it is almost 10 o’clock at night! What kind of out are we talking about here?

I have my suspicions, of course. I mean, this MIGHT be a guy who MIGHT have some history of some PRETTY DUMB IDEAS. Okay, yes, granted, ideas that seem to have worked out. For now. But just because you play with fire and manage to not get burned, that’s no reason to then go right back and sign up for full-contact fire-wrestling or something.

An uncle of mine always used to say “Nothing good happens after midnight.” When you’re married — and not with your wife — it’s more like 8:15.

I think we all forget this from time to time, but there is nothing more important than family. NOTHING. The past weeks have been the worst — but I never would have made it without my family. As long as I live, I’ll never forget what they’ve done for us.

But that doesn’t mean that certain husbands can just go around ruining their marriages for no good reason.
